It was reported in Eenadu that the salary of sanitation workers is given by their supervisors by keeping their ATM cards with them. The supervisors withdraw the whole salary and kept with them Rs.1000/- and give the rest to the worker. This has been the practice, as reported.


Why no action was not taken on this allegation as yet?

Why those holding the ATM cards of sanitation workers are not booked under corruption?

Why GHMC did not take any action on this report?

When a sanitation worker strike the work because of very low pay and the commission that he/she gives to the supervisor, why government is not considering this as a significant problem to be solved immediately?

Why PRC is given only to the Govt Employees who are known to earn through other corrupt practices too and thus get benefited in all respects?

In the eyes of the law all the employees serving the govt directly or indirectly by associating with any body controlled by the Govt shall deem to be a government servant. Then why PRC is limited to govt staff?

These are some of the basic questions that are being raised in the minds of people. A sanitation worker does not have any scope to earn extra money through corruption and yet she / he is paid very less. The nature of work that she/he does as a sanitation worker poses several challenges to their health and yet they are not being considered as the most deserving employees to get PRC.

It is inhuman to treat the sanitation workers with less pay and benefits. The govts shall come out with a performance based pay system for these employees and consider them as the most essential service providers and pay extra for their service that subject them to health hazards.
